A police officer took just 5 minutes from the time a pickup was stolen yesterday (Sunday) afternoon from DeLeon’s near 12th and South to capture the 22-year-old alleged thief near 12th and H Streets. Capt. Michon Morrow told KFOR NEWS Shawn Brooks allegedly jumped into a running truck, left unattended by its driver. A police officer followed the stolen truck, which hit an electrical pole near 12th and H. Brooks ran off, but the same officer ran him down. Brooks is in jail this morning (Monday) for felony theft and fleeing to avoid arrest.
